In today's world we all have an 'easy' access to all kinds of information but it seems as if we don't use this information flow and the potential it creates efficiently, we can not make full use of it. Is it because we can not get away from our old habits and prejudices? Around this main concept, that moment has come. TEDxReset was here in Istanbul in all its reality. And I was there on a day long journey that I mentioned in a previous post:
Think: What if we just re-think? Living outside the box!
Eset Akçilad, a Yale Univ educated. Script writer & Director, Turkey
Forget: Why do we need to forget?
Dr Rahmi O. Güvenç, Lecturer and Founder of Tümata, Turkey
Music-therapy. Application of turkish music for some (turkish) attendees.
Soul & Sufi music.
Coffee break...
Create: Who will create the new world?
Birgit Lohmann, CEO/Editor-in-chief, Designboom, Milan-Italy
Curator of this Conference in Istanbul, Ali Üstündağ (right)
No time to play it safe, take smart risks!
Lakis Gavalas, Founder & Chairman, Creative Director of LAK Fashionland, Greece
With like-minded friends at Bosphorus University's Albert Long Hall
Language of tomorrow
Prof Lev Manovich, Visual Arts, Univ of California, San Diego -US
If I will remember this occasion as a day which was full of excitement, fun, discovery, provocative, but also very enlightening it will be because of their efforts and hardwork realized by this RESET Istanbul team. Thanks to (left to right) dear Serhat, Hakan, Belig and Nazli!
On a side note
------------------
Our world is changing. Constantly changing. Very fast changing. Not only physically changing, its soul is changing. If there is ~6billion people forming the soul of the world, only a handful TEDxReset friends reflected their soul to the rest of the world. Seems not enough.

ReplyDeleteI agree - not enough. But, hopefully as the world becomes smaller, and we all continue to reach out to one another, things will change and grow for the better of all.
